Watching a film in quicktime from itunes libary

I have been told I need to install quicktime to watch a hd movie from my library, which I have also downloaded to my pc. I have installed it but now cannot sync accounts to watch the movie. suggestions please

Did you turn off the ATV? Or watch something else in the meantime? That will flush the rental. You won't be charged again (you have 30 days prior to watching and 24/48hrs, depending on your location, once you start) but it will need to reload.
You can go to the settings tab, iTunes store, check for rentals. Once rented it normally shows the poster image of said movie in the top left when you navigate to the movies tab

    If the TV Show is downloaded on your iPad, you don't need Wi-Fi to watch it.

    TRy to close itunes by double tapping the home button then slide up all of the open apps and try again.
    another option is to turn off your ipad, logout from your itunes account and try again downloading the movie. If it still gives you error, call apple support and ask for itunes agent to see if there is something wrong with the movie you are trying to download

  • How do I activate English subtitles on a French film I rented from iTunes?

    How do I activate English subtitles on a French film I rented from iTunes?

    Is this music your friend wrote and performed and which you have permisssion to copy?  Not being able to copy media from a phone synced to one library to a computer with a different library is probably deliberate to prevent people from distributing music for which they have not paid.

  • Streaming Films and music from iTunes to apple tv stops after a while

    I have two apple TVs second gen and when I have been streaming music or movies to one of them I find that the films or music play for about 10 minutes or so but then stop. After that nothing can connect to my wireless network including phones, laptop, iPad or apple tv.
    I have tried streaming a movie from my iPad using file browser app but suffer the same problem. I have only been able to rectify this by resetting the apple tv. I have also had many conversations with my servic provider but the problem seems to be only when using apple tv as I can stream to my laptop or phone perfectly fine. Can anyone please help me as I have spent lots of time converting my DVD collection to mp4v only to not be able to watch a full film!!
    I have been told there is an issue between apple tv and iTunes. Thanks in any advance.

    As an update, I can confirm I watched a film last night on my apple tv2 and it played all the way through without a hick up. I changed a couple of things so can't be sure what worked but what I did was:
    1 changed the channel by broadband comes in on to improve signal (that said I dont know if the one I'm using is right).
    2 reset my external WD my book live to re-sync with the router
    3 turned off the option allowing my mac book pro to go to sleep and turn the internal HDD to sleep when possible in the power saving menu.
    4 shouted at it and made degrading remarks about the efficiency of apple products compared to the floor less performance (although less glamourous look) of my WD tv live box which works without hick up btw. Although cannot play iTunes downloaded files...who to blame.
    And it seemed to work. For now I am happier than I was but still not convinced it will serve me as well as I would like but here's to the here and now...watch this space.

  • HT1657 Will I need wifi to watch the movie I rent from iTunes?

    If I rent a movie from iTunes will I need wifi to watch it?

    As long as the film has been fully downloaded then you should be able to watch it whilst offline.

  • Error 50 or freeze when watching a movie while downloading from itunes store since version 10.6 (windows 7 64bit).

    When I am downloading a tv show and try to play it at the same time, not matter the remaining time of the download, itunes stop the download with an error after a couple of minutes. (error 50.) Somethimes, it just freeze instead. I am able to resume the download and watch again till the next stop.
    I have no problem just playing or just dowloading, only when doing both. I have this problem since version 10.6 only. This affect all my new downloads since then.
    My first guest would be  a hard drive saturation that can't handle the load. Maybe  itunes stop downloading when the hard drive is too busy. But again, never had this problem before. It it was the case, the playing should stop, not the download !
    My config is iunes 10.6.040, windows 7 64 bits.
    Thanks for your help.

    This has been happening on my Windows 7 64-bit computer as well same exact problem with the latest version of iTunes. It does look like they have some kind of bug in this new version where the downloading process just dies when it has to deal any I/O wait from file playback, really a bad bug as this is a core function of iTunes that shouldn't have gotten through the testing process.  I have to say that iTunes is one of the buggiest pieces of software I have ever used in my entire life, all kinds of regressions and bugs with every update and they are on version 10.6.x !  Apple must have some poor developers in the iTunes team, hey guys put down the bong and chips and actually establish a standard continuous integration and testing process with good test coverage for iTunes! You shouldn't have regressions on such core functionalities especially with a software as mature as this, what's going on? Or is it that you've been instructed to make the software a crappy as possible for Windows so everyone goes to buy a Mac and OS X?
    More bugs just off the top of my head in the latest iTunes 10.6.x:
    - In the download screen when you double click to playback a movie while it is downloading, if you pause the movie the play button goes grey, you cannot start playing the paused movie again without quitting the movie and clicking to start it again from iTunes
    - The next/prev chapter buttons during movie playback don't work at all anymore, they simply crash the movie, close the window and go back to iTunes
    - Many times after getting the unknown error -50 or -39 because you tried to play a movie while it was downloading, when you go back to the download window to restart the download iTunes loses all the downloaded movie content it had it starts over for no apparent reason!  Wonderful!
    For a company that sells/rents really expensive movies and music you would expect a really high standard go into the software development process, apparently shareholders are more important than customers.

  • Can you watch a movie you rented from iTunes on your apple TV?

    I rented a movie from Itunes on my Mac. Can I watch it on my Apple TV somehow.  I am at home now and don't want to sit and look at my computer screen.
    Is there a way to stream it to the apple tv?

    Assuming home sharing is enabled, the rental will appear on your Apple TV once it has fully downloaded on your Mac.

  • The airplay icon has disappeared from my desk top. It was there two weeks ago, so I can't watch movies I've downloaded from iTunes and flick them over to my TV.

    The airplay icon has disappeared from my MAC desktop. It was there two weeks ago when I successfully used it to 'flick a movie i had purchased from iTunes over to my tv. Also, if I rent the movie through iTunes, why (because of the above issue) when I go to 'Purchased' it doesn't display as an option when actually using Apple TV, it doesn't display but when I go to rent it again a message comes up saying "you have already rented this movie, do you want to rent it again"? Frustrated!!

    Ok Fellas, let me give you a clue:  Games, particularly those that make heavy use of graphics and sound are notoriously power hungry.  In fact, when I was in the Navy many years ago, the folks working on the NTDS (Navy Tactical Data System)  computers used a version of Space Invaders to load test the AN/UYK-43 computers.
    I have also noticed that all of my laptops (I have a brand new Toshiba dual core, an older Toshiba single core, plus 2 Dell dual core machines) have significantly shorter battery life when I play Company of Heroes than when I am just reading e-mail or surfing the 'Net.  I have also noticed the same behavior when I play games on my 4th gen Touch and my iPhone 4.
    The fact is, iOS 5 did make some major improvements as well as adding some nice functionality like iMessage, wireless synch, and such, but the down side is that depending on how you use the device battery life can be shorter that what you may have experienced with pervious versions of iOS.  Its just the nature of the beast...
    We now return you to our regularly scheduled programming.....
    Oh John....  Oh Marsha.....

  • I have a new IPAD4 which has synced pictures i selected but not music or films i selected from itunes library? I have had an account for years and never had issues syncing with iphone or ipod? when i attempt ipad the data shows and it cycles but nothing?

    show the data shows whe i selet for sync (i have ticked sync only ticked icon) and selected two playlists - the data usage shows an extra 3.2 gb off my 32g ipad and the movies show up purple on the data usage bar, i press apply / sync it takes 20mins to go through 5 stages - never once do i see a song title or number in the update display. then when it finishes the data usage bar goes back to the lower amount before i tried to add the music and movies to my ipad?? The only thing that i have managed to move if pictures??
    Im confused, ive always got on fine with moving, updating and syncing my iphone, ipod touch, have done this the same way but NO music or films
    when i go through the summary section it says i have selected 757 songs (off two playlists) and i movie (from a digital copy via itunes), they show in usage bar b4 sync but then after sync nothing! i have tried both wi fi sync and normal, i have the lastest updates and CANT FIGURE THIS OUT
    When i set up the ipad out the box the other day it asked whether i wanted a NEW INSTALL or RESTORE FROM ICLOUD BACKUP (presumbly off iphone), I choose restore, it then downloaded all the apps and web history/bookmarks etc, although it took about 8 hours to do it which i thought was odd?!
    Ive spent £500 on this and if i cant put my msuc or movies on it that makes it a very exspensive web browser, APPLE this should be easier .......! please help - im no techno noob beither grand master, just your average user so im sure people might know what to do... i freakin hope so!

    ps when syncing it jumps through steps 1 - 4 real fast, i seem to remeber iphone showing the number of tracks transferring and names, but i see nothing? then it sits on 5 saying "waiting for changes to be applied"

  • Grey Bar On TV Watching Pirates of Caribbean Bought From iTunes - WTH?!?!

    I bought Pirates of The Caribbean 3 from the iTunes Store, and have transferred it to my iPod video(5G), connecting it to my tv via my composite cable. Problem is(And this has me very angry), I have a VERY obtrusive grey bar sitting at the bottom of the video, making it very difficult to watch anything without focusing on the damned bar!!

    OK - I would move on to trying to reset/restore the iPod at this point, if you haven't already.
    Reset:
    Ensure the HOLD switch is OFF so that there is NO orange color showing beneath the switch. Then, press and hold the MENU and the SELECT (center) buttons together for about 10 seconds, until you see an Apple logo. When you see the Apple, let go of the buttons and the iPod will restart itself.
    Restore:

  • HT1657 I am unable to watch tv or rental movies from itunes on my Sony laptop (2007--windows 7)

    Granted my Sony laptop VGN-FE770G is 6 years old it no longer plays movies or tv shows thru iTunes
    Have tried the troubleshooting tips, i.e., new user account, safe mode, etc and nothing works.
    I'd like to get a really good refurbished MAC as I have had so much fun with the iPad, iPhone and iPod....even the old iPaq before it went kaput.
    any thoughts on which model?  13 inches is a good size, editing movies?
    Karen

    Many thanks, Karen.
    Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
    ... and click OK.
    Quit the QuickTime Player if you have it open. Restart the PC and try watching the videos in iTunes again. Do they play now?

  • Can I watch consecutive tv shows bought from iTunes on iPad iso7?

    Bit the bullet and downloaded the new iso7 on my daughters iPad 1. Wish I never did I now cannot play consecutive tv shows (same series/season) there is no play button anymore when I open the purchased series/season. Under settings> Videos I've only got the option of watching them where I left off or from the start every time. Is there any way to change this so I can watch the shows consecutively instead of having to open a new show each time the previous one finishes?
    If the answer is no, can I restore my iPad to go back to the previous ISO system?
    TIA

    Yes, just double click the movie in iTunes. It will start playing in the bottom left corner of iTunes. Click on the video in the lower left corner (on the actual video that is playing) and it will open in a bigger view with a fullscreen option.
